Abstract

AbstractWindow‐ or building‐integrated semi‐transparent solar cells are particularly interesting applications for organic photovoltaic devices. In this work, we present an easy‐to‐process inverted device architecture comprising fully solution processable poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene):polystyrenesulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) bilayer top‐electrodes for efficient semi‐transparent organic solar cells. By incorporating dyes with a complementary absorption to the light harvesting polymer poly[[9‐(1‐octylnonyl)‐9H‐carbazole‐2,7‐diyl]‐2,5‐thiophenediyl‐2,1,3‐benzothiadiazole‐4,7‐diyl‐2,5‐thiophenediyl] (PCDTBT) into the PEDOT:PSS electrode, we achieve fully color neutral transparency perception and a color rendering index approaching 100. This makes the devices suitable for applications such as window shadowing or the integration into overhead glazing.
